GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I really like the education system and the classes available. I believe there are many different classes to take and all the teachers are very helpful. The location is also very great. The social aspect is not the best on the other hand. Students keep to themselves a lot.

The teachers should go through more extensive training. Administration needs to work more on preparing students for college and helping with the application process.
